Fall Sports Concessions
Consider taking a short shift to serve at one of our fall games! Kids love seeing you and you're helping to generate revenue that goes right back into our school!
If you have a student who does NOT play a fall sport, consider working a shift now so other parents can enjoy watching their kids play. They'll do the same for you during winter and spring activities! Concessions dollars go directly back to our PTO to fund school grants and other awesome activities.
